What you need:

1/4 cup cornflour

250g of baking soda

1/2 cup cold water

a few squirts of dishwashing liquid

a few drops of food colouring

white wine vinegar

paint brushes

Activity:

Step 1: Gather your ingredients. Combine the cornflour, baking soda, water and dishwashing liquid in a large bowl.

Step 2: Add the food colouring to your paint mix. You might like to divide your mixture into separate, smaller bowls to make multiple colours. We like using an old muffin tin as a palette for different colours.
